Abstract
Provided is a bi-directional optical module package having an optical module unit comprising a substrate member, an optical filter installed on the substrate member to be inclined with respect to an optical fiber, a first holder supported by the substrate member on one side of the optical filter and having a laser diode and a lens for transmitting an optical signal to the optical fiber through one side of the optical filter, and a second holder supported by the substrate member on the other side of the optical filter and having a photodiode and a lens for receiving the optical signal received through the optical fiber through the optical filter.
Claims6
A bi-directional optical module package having an optical module unit comprising:
- a substrate member;
- an optical filter installed on the substrate member to be inclined with respect to an optical fiber;
- a first holder supported by the substrate member on one side of the optical filter and having a laser diode and a lens for transmitting an optical signal to the optical fiber through one side of the optical filter;
- and
- a second holder supported by the substrate member on the other side of the optical filter and having a photodiode and a lens for receiving the optical signal received through the optical fiber,
- wherein the first holder includes a first base portion having a laser diode, a pad and a circuit pattern installed thereon, and first extending portions which extend from both sides of the first base portion to define a fixed position of the lens, and the second holder includes a second base portion having a photodiode installed on an inner surface thereof and a wire bonding pad installed thereon, and second extending portions which extend from both sides of the second base portion to define a fixed position of the lens, and
- wherein inclined planes having the same gradient as that of an external surface of the optical filter are formed on at least one end portions of the first extending portions and at least one end portions of the second extending portions so that the optical filter is disposed between the inclined planes.
A bi-directional optical module package comprising:
- an optical fiber which is supported by supporting means;
- an optical module unit which has a substrate member, an optical filter, a first holder, and a second holder, the optical filter being installed on the substrate member to be inclined with respect to the optical fiber, the first holder being supported by the substrate member on one side of the optical filter and having a laser diode and a lens for transmitting an optical signal to the optical fiber through one side of the optical filter, and the second holder being supported by the substrate member on the other side of the optical filter and having a photodiode and a lens for receiving the optical signal received through the optical fiber;
- a stem which supports the optical module unit and has a plurality of pins, and
- a cover member which is coupled to the stem to surround the optical module unit, and has an opening formed on a side corresponding to the optical fiber,
- wherein the first holder includes a first base portion having a laser diode, a pad and a circuit pattern installed thereon, and first extending portions which extend from both sides of the first base portion to define a fixed position of the lens, and the second holder includes a second base portion having a photodiode installed on an inner surface thereof and a wire bonding pad installed thereon, and second extending portions which extend from both sides of the second base portion to define a fixed position of the lens, and
- wherein inclined planes having the same gradient as that of an external surface of the optical filter are formed on at least one end portions of the first extending portions and at least one end portions of the second extending portions so that the optical filter is disposed between the inclined planes.
